From low gas prices to growth in renewable energy sources like wind and solar, energy featured prominently in President Obama’s sixth State of the Union address last night. From the way we produce energy to how we use it in our homes and businesses, the President laid out key ways that he plans to fight climate change and build the clean energy economy.

Watch the video above to check out energy highlights from the President’s speech. Then at 3 p.m. today, join @Energy and other Administration officials for a Twitter town hall on science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). It’s part of Big Block of Cheese Day, a day-long virtual Q&A inspired by President Andrew Jackson’s 1837 open house featuring a 1,400-pound block of cheese.
